Not once had she stepped foot out of the lair. Not at all. Today was a day for spoiling, and spending time with kin.
The morning had started with a soaking in the cold pool. The chill easing knotted muscles.
As the day continued, she settled into the lair's library with the newest of her brood. While the hatchlings loved story time...They loved snuggling with momma even more.
Something she had not been able to do when she was ill.
Her cold now gone, she thrummed and preened the hatchlings, resting with them to look at her favorite picture book.
Eventually the hatchlings fell asleep, tucked close to her side. And momma ever watchful coiled around them, soon joining her precious babies in blissful slumber.
It was the little things that mattered most.
